Brings up Religious Education in English county (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

breeds

'brings up' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'religious education in english county' is the wordplay.
'religious education' becomes 'RE' (abbreviation).
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'english county' becomes 'Beds' (abbreviation for Bedfordshire).
're' placed into 'beds' is 'BREEDS'.

(Other definitions for breeds that I've seen before include "Produces offspring" , "Generates" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
